Amazon.com Review
Providing myriad options, this automatic bread maker embodies the marvels of 21st century electronic convenience and choice. Yes, it mixes, kneads, rises, and bakes bread in three loaf sizes up to 2-1/2 pounds. But its digital controls go much further, offering settings for white, whole wheat, multigrain, and French (crisp crust, open texture) breads, each made according to what’s best for that particular style. Other settings permit rapid baking and baking sandwich bread with a soft crust. For raisin (or other dried-fruit) bread, a beeper signals when to add the fruit so it’s not crushed during kneading. Crust color–dark or light–can be selected as well.
The machine automatically adds yeast at the proper time from a dispenser on the unit’s lid. It also bakes non-yeast, quick breads– like banana and gingerbread–and sweet cakes. And it mixes, kneads, and rises doughs for pizza, focaccia, croissants, and other pastries without baking them. A timer permits the machine to be programmed up to 13 hours in advance so fresh bread or cake is available for breakfast or dinner. For cleanup convenience, the baking pan is nonstick. Clad in metal and packing 550 watts of power, the machine measures 14 inches wide, 13.5 inches high, and 9 inches deep. Its instruction booklet is exceptionally easy to understand and includes recipes for 40 breads and doughs along with an insightful guide to baking basics and illustrated tips for making pastries. –Fred Brack

Disappointing appliance. Takes too long to process. Seems easy enough to assemble the ingredients, but the quality of the final product is not good enough to warrant keeping this bread maker.

This is a great breadmaker, which I bought as a Christmas gift for my sister; however read the fine print if they offer you a rebate. You only get one month to send in the receipt, yet I didn’t receive the item until at least a week later and of course I didn’t cut up the box to get the UPC until after Christmas. They rejected my rebate of $20 and I am very frustrated.

I am very content with this Breadman.
Only one problem I have.
During moving to new house, I have lost the nozzle of this machine.
Please tell me how I can buy the nozzle.
I want to keep using this wonderful machine.
thank you.

This machine is everything I ever dreamed a bread machine could be. And Ringo (my Black Lab.) hasn’t had any complaints. As soon as SYD (that’s what I call the machine) starts rising – Ringo goes mad. I’ve never seen my pup eat 2 1/2 pounds of multigrain before. But as long as it’s fresh, I guess it’s healthy! LOL.
The delight it brings Ringo and I has been immeasurable. We make whole evenings of buying supplies, watching SYD Knead, rise, and finally bake. I even sneak slices from the loaf, this way Ringo doesn’t growl. And I am in heaven. Imagine if heavens clouds were as soft as the loaves Ringo and I bake.
The only problem I have with my SYD, is that Ringo can’t bake it himself.
But the automatic Yeast dispenser is a step in the right direction.
3 Stars for SYD, the best bread maker I have ever owned.

My orginal machine was a Mr. BreadMaster. It was the first one I bought. Compared to the Panasonic Bread Maker, the bread was okay. The new machine was worth the price. It makes great bread with great ease
